Salmon is one of those rare foods that’s delicious and healthy. Let’s face it those foods are few and far between. Salmon is an excellent source of high-quality proteins, vitamins and minerals but most importantly it’s loaded with omega-3’s. Despite its naturally great taste, sometimes it can get a little boring, especially if you are trying to work it into your diet on a more regular basis. These salmon toppers below will have you wanting salmon every night of the week!

Great spa! Very beautiful and calming atmosphere. The relaxation room and locker room are modern, well kept, and relaxing. Everyone I encountered was kind and helpful.

I treated my 74-year-old mother to a birthday facial, and the staff and experience at Essentials Medispa & Salon were outstanding. Check-in was seamless, the team was so polite, and the facial itself was a little slice of heaven. I highly recommend Essentials for anyone who needs a break from the world or as a special treat for a loved one or occasion.

I was visiting family from out of town and was incredibly tight from my flight. I booked a massage and was pleasantly surprised at how nice this spa was! I left feeling so much better.
